Subject: binary data from Postgresql with cursors
Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 10:28:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <EB20465D-0604-4591-B376-A690B65D625D@mayachitra.com> (raw)

	Hi, I'm trying to pull binary data out of a postgresql database with  
the Postgresql module.  In postgresql, CURSORs have a binary option,  
which skips the usual conversion to text (which must be converted  
back).  However the module methods for getting data from a result,  
e.g. get_tuple, getvalue, all return string types, with no  
straightforward way to get ints and floats.  Has anyone else ran into  
this?

Thanks,
Ken Sullivan
